Only in spirit.
Actually, I'm working on the first of a 4-novel series on the life and times of Jesus and I am intentionally not visiting Israel (several times I almost took part in an archaeological dig there). The first century Israel that I know and love so well no longer exists, and everything has changed so much I'm afraid it may affect or even alter the Israel that exists in my mind, and that I'm trying to write about. May sound silly I guess but ... there it is.
